Super is a new Australian play by celebrated Melbourne playwright, essayist and poet Emilie Collyer, directed by multi award-winning theatre-maker, Emma Valente. Featuring Laila Thaker alongside Red Stitch Ensemble member Caroline Lee.
Phoenix and Nel have superpowers. They take a lot of care and do a lot of good. But when celebrity chef Rae arrives at one of their weekly support meetings, she turns their world upside down. As they transform from stealth crusaders to global superstars, their powers ramp up exponentially. It's amazing! Until it isn't.
Hilarious, poignant and strange, Super examines our urge to do good and what happens when this effort comes up against the relentless force of capitalism.
If we are super, what is the cost?
